Below are five sneak previews of "These Ties That Bind," Thursday's all-new episode of Grey's Anatomy. From the looks of it, there's a lot going on at Seattle Grace this week.
In the clip below, Meredith's old friend Sadie (Melissa George) shows up unannounced at her door - to the dismay of both Cristina and Derek, who lament things afterward ...
Funny stuff. Follow the jump for a quartet of additional sneak previews, including a confrontation between Derek and Owen, and the arrival of Dr. Dixon (Mary McDonnell) ...

Ok, that clip of Derek and Cristina...priceless. Hilarious. Best one of all...lol. I'm actually excited for Mary's character. She seems very interesting. Sadie? eh...I'll wait and see but death? Isn't there a better nickname?
Oh, and I love, love, the testosterone clashes between Mark/Derek and Hunt. They are gonna kick some ass :).

Ok....this show is starting to make no sense at all. Where are all these characters coming from all of a sudden? A "best" friend we've never heard of, a crazy doctor who likes to quote dates...Shonda is fucking up bad. She lets too many storylines go unfinished, and then starts all new ones. This show has gone from brilliant, to good, to ok..now it's mediocre. and by the time the series ends i think it's going to be a disaster. nothing makes sense anymore.
Meredith and Derek are finally together and it sure doesn't seem like it. She's never in bed with him, it's, they don't really talk a lot it seems, and he looks bored of her. They were better as an unofficial couple back at the end of season 4.
Is George still a doctor or what?? Izzie going crazy AGAIN?? Callie is a lesbian that likes to have sex with Mark? The writers dig up the past in halfass ways and fail miserably to deliver. This show sucks now, and i've been watching since the very first episode. Thanks Shonda for letting your show go to shit.

mario,
it IS possible that she had a best friend that went to work somewhere on the other side of the country and they never spoke to eachother again, and the crazy doctor is at least something new, if she would've been normal, thát would've really sucked.
and that mer&der are together again doesn't mean they should be in bed together all the time! and callie just made clear she isn't exactly a lesbian, and there does exist something like bisexuality... grey's DOESN'T suck!! if you think so, stop watching okay?

i already hate sadie. arrrrrghhh I've only seen 2 previews and she already makes me wanna puke. i can't see this going anywhere good. cristina and mer are great together and derek already gets too little of her.
we don't need a bazillion new storylines. how about finishing up the old ones first?
grrrr just when i was hoping shonda turned it around...

Can't wait to see her in Grey's.

Ok, maybe they don't NEED to be in bed all the time, that's not exactly what I'm saying. It's just that Mer seems to leave Derek out all the time, I thought that this time around things were going to be different. I know it's drama, and that's what makes the show, but there is a difference in showing good drama and keeping characters lingering in the same place for 2 or 3 seasons.
I see where you're going with the Callie thing, but for it to just drop and pick up that quickly...that's weird. I would love for this show to start doing individual episodes. Where each character gets most of the hour. Focus on each character at a time while stringing along some other storylines. I used to get a feeling for what these guys were thinking/feeling. Now i've lost that completely.
I suppose you're right about the new doc, making her normal would've been boring...that's just it though, they need gimmicks now to make the show "work"? Burke was normal, he worked out perfectly fine. Yes the arm thing can be seen as a gimmick too, but we were already familiar with him, 2 and half seasons of familiar. Unfortunately I can't bring myself to quit watching. I've devoted a lot of time to these characters and leaving without seeing the final resolve would make me no better than shonda herself.
